Federico Fernández and Martin Sarano will speak on “Doing Business in Argentina: The current business climate and the ethical dilemmas it presents to entrepreneurs and corporations” 
to my Business and Economic Ethics class on Thursday, October 13.
Early in the twentieth century, Argentina’s economy was one of the top ten in the world, but it experienced significant decline over the past several decades. Doingbusiness.org is a useful site with information about the ease or difficulty of doing business in every country in the world. Argentina is ranked 115th overall.
Fernández and Sarano are President and Vice-President, respectively, of the Bases Foundation of Argentina, and Sarano is concurrently a student in the MBA program at the Booth School of the University of Chicago. I had the pleasure of meeting them last year at the Third International Conference on the Austrian School of Economics in the 21st Century.
Please see the flyer [pdf] for details about the talk’s time and location. Fernández and Sarano’s visit is sponsored by the Center for Ethics and Entrepreneurship.
